Tequila Joven · Edición Exclusivo 4020
Pedro Furtivo Joven
Some expressions demand attention. This one earns it. Sixty percent of our blend is high proof blanco, bright and unapologetic. Twenty percent is Pedro Furtivo aged twenty months in Bordeaux barrels. The final twenty percent rested forty months in bourbon barrels. Three components, one deliberate blend. We did not set out to make a statement. We set out to make something worthy of one.

From the label
“El zorro joven era el más feroz de todos los zorros jóvenes; ardiente era su diente y firme era su pata.”
